How many people are in my boat? There I am watching TV (BBC America is the only channel for me*) and up pops that Colonial Penn commercial with Joe Theismann you know what he says "When I broke my leg on national tv..." Who else is inflicted with my vision. I shut my eyes and I can see it happen clearly as when it happened all those years ago. Joe's great but seeing that happen 2 or 3 times a night is driving me crazy.

I hear you! Loud and clear(ly visible)!

OK, Stop......it keeps going through my head...I can't stand it! :-O

That was one of the grossest injuries ever shown (over and over and over) on TV!

Oh my God, Ian--that image stayed with me for years and years and years (and years). I'm sure that I have suffered mental anguish because of it.

Even though you couldn't hear it, when you saw it happen, you could just imagine the sound reverberating through your head!!

Probably, for me, the most memorable football moment... ever!
